My mom left me to go to Tennessee for Christmas. Normally we all go with her in the car but since she only had 2 weeks off from work she decided to leave all of us. But we have our amazing petsitter staying wih us.... But I miss mom! This picture was my mom's Christmas picture. I wanted to look pathetic so that she comes home soon!!!

Mom got a new Flip Video as a Christmas gift from work, so she's been taking videos of ME!!! I hope you like my Jolly Ball prowess! It was nice to get out and play because it's been raining alot here in Southern California!! It hasn't stopped mom and I from running! But it seems mom is sick-so the best way to exercise a cattle dog when you cant exercise? JOLLY BALL!!!

My mom would also like to remind you that she is running the Carlsbad Half Marathon again this year for a doggie charity!!! This will be the 3rd year in a row she'll be running and raising money for Labrador Rescuers! Could you share $1 to help Labrador Rescuers rescue, rehabilitate and rehome Labs? It would make me very happy and make my mom very happy! She's got a little over $800 to raise.... can you spare $1? remember, your donation is tax deductible. If you live outside of the US, you can donate as well-they take foreign donations!

Mom is on vacation! So what did she do? She took me running in the rain today. She said something about loving the rain but she never asked me! I'm not a big fan of water and getting wet! But I love spending time with my mom!!!

Yep! I have mom for 3 days again this weekend! Her work day was cancelled yesterday so I got to hang with mom, went to work with her briefly and then this morning, I got a special Saturday morning treat-Jolly ball in the fog at the park!!!! I could get used to these 3 day weekends with my mom!!! Maybe I'll get to go to the park tomorrow as well!

I think tonight I get to go meet a new Labrador puppy, Logan! He's the new family member of mom's best friend! It should be fun!

I saw Sheep! I saw Sheep!!!! Mom took me sheep herding today! I was SO excited!

We went into the arena-Mom wasn't sure how I'd do since it had been a year since we had last gone! Can you believe Mom has been a Cattle Dog Slacker mom and hasn't take me sheep herding! Something about her job! blah blah blah!

But today I saw my sheep! I got up close and personal with my sheep! I remembered all my commands and was actually driving the sheep away from mom!!!!

The 2 Akita's were found today! They were turned into the Downey Shelter and have been reuinited with their human! But the 2 Corgi's are still missing. The police think the Corgi's might be in the Compton area. Can we put the Power of the Paw to work to find these two Corgi's? Let's bring these two dogs home!

Mom and I like herding dogs!!! We hate that these two are still missing!!

Terrible news. Kristina Rickard's (Dream Hi Akitas) van was stolen while it was parked last night at the hotel in Long Beach, CA. They don't know when it was stolen, but it was gone this morning (11/30/10). It has Trace (Top 5 Akita) and a young female Akita, and two corgis in it. Please cross post this to every list you are on and get the news out. Anyone in the Southern California area, please notify your vets office and local animal control in case the dogs are found, turned loose or taken to a vet. http://www.akitasdreamhi.com shows a photos of Trace, I don't have info on other dogs.

If anyone knows how to get this on the local news, MSN, etc. it would be a great help. Tom Rickard is on his way to Long Beach right now, and Lori is at home manning the phones, and Nener (Kristina) and David have Tamera Houser driving to hotel right now, so they will have help and wheels. Nener's cell phone is: 530-351-2412--please do not call to talk, but only if information is found or you have amazing suggestion--please text if possible. E-mail:dreamhi@c-zone.net . The police have already come to take a statement and hopefully they will be a great help.

2006 White Chevy Express Cargo Van, California license 8D20252, with a big black box on the back and three dog stickers on the back windows. If anyone was to see this van on the side of the road or parking lot, please report asap and check on the dogs. Hopefully, they will be found inside.

About me, my sister and baby brother....

I'm a 10 year old red heeler,my barkday is April 2nd. I was rescued, by my wonderful mom, from the south central shelter in Los Angeles the day I was supposed to be put to sleep. I had been in isolation for a month with kennel cough, which meant no one came to see me....but my mom did and she saved me! She called me her bat-eared girl when she first got me and took me home that day...but I have turned into her beautiful red heeler and I love my mom!

And now I have a little sister who mom named Ceilidh (K-Lee). She is about 3 years old, so that puts her barkday around September 5th. She was rescued from the Orange County Shelter before she was put to sleep as well. Mom must have a thing about doggies that have been in the shelter for a long time!

My brother is an all black Chihuahua/Terrier mix that mom rescued from the Harbor Shelter. He is about 3 years old as well and his name is Jack Sparrow because mom thinks he's a little pirate!!!
